I am going to chronicle my first time having played through Fire Emblem : Path Of Radiance. Naturally, this is going to be spoiler ridden beyond all reasonable expectation.

Day 1

There is no toggle all enemy movement range button. You have to do it manually each turn.

Anna's the tutorial lady?

;-; everyone's mean to Boyd

Titania is OP OP

Titania's getting like 1 experience

Boyd is actually pretty strong

I was expecting him to do much worse than he is so far

The Man The Myth The Legend

We meet at last

Gatrie's dodge is hilarious.

Is Shinon always a buzzkill?

Day 2

alright, getting back into the spin of things today. We kidnapped a princess?

Reminds me of Final Fantasy 9 XD

;-; I just started to like Greil and then some jerk in a ravioli can went and stabbed him ;-;

Calm before Chapter 9. I have acquired a second mage. I still don't know how to use Soren properly. The sheer number of ranged units that can 2 shot him means he is low in experience and generally bored in a corner. I'm thinking of buying him a sudoku book.

Conversely, TITANIA SMASH

Also, Boyd didn't survive the cavalry charge even when I gave him the poleax so he's not godly yet ;-; Had to restart ch. 8.

had Ike, Soren, Oscar, Mia and Rhys on the west with Rhys, Soren, and Oscar moving as needed. Ilyana and Ike held west pretty nicely, though Oscar had to pick up Mia and Ilyana once or twice. Titania held south gate sans one turn where I swapped her for Oscar so she could heal, then when South gate was gone Titania alternated with Boyd so he could heal.

;-; Soren so soft tho

and apparently he hates cat people. Soren no.

These are taken from conversations I was having before I decided to do this. Things will hopefully be a bit more composed should I make this a regular thing.

alright, I guess I'll put Miracle on Rhys. Okay its gone so its like a Pokemon TM.
I like Mordecai. He is really chill all things considered.
Lethe is mean. She starts lots of cat fights.
even the little kids are mean to Boyd ;-;
Are Laguz really slow to use? They seem like they would be.
Rolf is tankier than I thought he'd be.
Okay the Laguz are really strong, but its in a glass cannon sort of way. Only on half the time.
Mordecai has so much health though.
the enemy hanging back to heal has saved me so many times so far.
Their desire to live is a refreshing weakness.
wow these pirates are strong. They have poisonous axes. Too bad TITANIA SMASH.
how do you get to the houses on this map? I lost them. Apparently you get a Talisman and Restore Staff which kinda sucks to lose, but I'll manage without them.
RIP Villages.
Marcia, this pegasus knight lady, reminds me of Est. Apparently she's the best.
One thing I think I haven't mentioned is how overpowered the mounted units are in this game. They have canto so they can use their excess movement after they attack. Get 5 in a row in a tight corridor and all 5 can attack.

Does the ai not target untransformed Laguz or have I just been lucky?
Nevermind.

wait pegasus gets canto too? OP OP

I can see why reddit says this game is horse emblem.

If I let Titania tank this boss guy's javelin until it breaks, will he eventually move to attack with the knight killer or is he a standard seize boss that won't move? Lets find out.

this is gonna take a while.

Wow, he actually landed a hit. Did like 8 damage.
He did it again. Deploying child heal bot. Double hit negated entirely.

Wait, does durability only go down on hits?
Evidently so.

This is going to take a while. Titania SWIFT.

Mist gained a STR. Mist Strong!
Deploying Oscar. He's less swift but has same DEF
Laguz currently bored in a corner turning into cats and back.
Oscar is presently a javelin mermaid.
one part man. one part javelin.

;-; Oscar you fool. Stop dodging.
Your brother Rolf needs to be Shinon tier by sun down.
Gave the Laguz some checkers.
Mist levels up quickly. I might just use her over Rhys once this is done.
I'll need to amazon delivery her a new heal staff though.
Be Mistified
I wish I could do flips like Lethe.
I wouldn't want to flip, but her calf muscles must be insane.
The year is 2077.
His javelin has finally broken.
Now the small child can poke him for 1 damage for a month.
Is Rolf's Bow worth preserving?
I think he actually dented his armor this time.
Gonna get Marcia in on this rock throwing too.
Okay I looked it up. Its just a bonus weapon EXP iron bow.
Its really nice of this guy to return Marcia's javelins.
Now Oscar's throwing rocks too.
Lethe is now part of the National Gallian Chess Committee.

Kotaff, that's this boss guy's name. He's a real champ. I've been throwing javelins and arrows at his for 30 turns, and he returns the ones that miss. Really nice guy apart from the whole serving an evil king deal.

Oscar now does 4 damage to this guy. Marcia does "Missed".
The game's being really cute about Rolf teaching himself. I bet Shinon did it, but he's too caught up in his persona to want people to know.
Then again, he's missed less than Shinon.
This is gonna be tough to explain to the king guy that's waiting on us.
I bet he's a lion.
Marcia is still on her original javelin.

I wonder how big the turn counter gets.
Rolf did 2 damage this time. MVP
He be like "You dare insult the son of a shepard!?" - shoots arrow that bounces off ravioli can.

Rolf has now surpassed Marcia in level.
Nevermind. She finally hit the guy and ding'd

Mist can use her 2 STR to beat my other healer in a fight, but I'm not sure past that. I'm using Mist because apparently she gets a horse later. and a sword.

Marcia still couldn't hit the broad side of a barn if you painted a target on it.

tbh at this point I'm just curious if the turn counter hits triple digits.

Elincia on Tour
Begnion, eh? Cool name
Hey there's that helmet lady everyone likes.
Ike on a stealth mission? We're screwed.
Anna "not having any personal knowledge" of breaking down doors with axes is hilarious in hindsight.
seeing as in later games she can open doors and in Heroes she has an axe.
Woah there's a Bishop
I like this Brom guy.
Marcia's inability to do damage got me spotted. ;-;
my god these guards are tanky

Stealth is a non entity in this attempt.
I keep reading the top value as "damage to be done" and it keeps biting me

Should I unlock Sephiran's room? I'm not sure if there's a reason to. Eh, I'll let him stay in there.

Ooh this general guy has a master seal.

Do I need to let the prisoners know they're free? Okay, I do. Just not for Kieran.

I like this Brom guy.
He smiling.

Marcia is too slow to double a door.

How does Brom know about the princess if she was kept secret? Oh. He doesn't.

My mistake was trusting the stealth capabilities of a pegasus. Metal Gearcia.

Does shove do damage?It just occurred to me that I hadn't used it yet is all. Nope, shoved Nephenee.

Mordecai is so strong.
I would have used Panne in Awakening so much if she was like this.

;-; Titania's like a pokemon when I'm trying to catch things. Crits when I want something else to happen.

I'll leave this off here for now in case the supports and info have things I should know for Chapter 14.

This is Gareth. I have been informed that the incredibly short interaction I had with him earlier in the game at Ch.12 is literally the only time he appears in Path Of Radiance. ;-; He's so cool looking though.
